I wrote this post for a friend, I'm sharing it here for anybody it might help. I got asked multiple times how I download cracked music software so I figured it'd be easier to write it down once. It's meant for people with very low technical skills who just want to start torrenting software without major risks, and it includes a bunch of safety tips that are already known in this community.

If you have feedback, let me know and I'll update the post.

So how do you tell if a keygen is a virus or if it's just being detected as a keygen?

If it's a keygen then you should just assume it contains a virus and run it in a sandbox. You'll only need to run it once anyway to test the key.
